Statement of Community Involvement
Community involvement is an important part of the process of preparing the Local Development Framework (LDF). The aim of the Statement of Community Involvement is to help ensure community ownership of the Local Development Framework and strengthen community involvement in planning over time. It also aims to improve overall representation and involvement across all sections of the community.
